Tim Hortons Egg & Cheese Egg White Wrap
This egg white wrap is high in histamine, driven by the cheddar cheese, spinach, and cultured wheat starch.
Fast food is cooked in batches and held warm rather than made when you order it, so it is rarely as fresh as something cooked at home. That matters here because histamine builds up as protein foods sit, which means the same item can affect you differently depending on how long it waited.
This wrap folds egg whites, cheddar, spinach, and onions into a soft flour tortilla, and it comes out high.
-
Aged cheddar and spinach lead — cheddar is high because it is an aged cheese, and spinach is a classic liberator, so either one alone pushes the wrap up.
-
The wrap itself adds more — the cultured wheat starch is high, and the enriched wheat flour and soybean oil sit at moderate, so the tortilla is not neutral.
A plain egg breakfast without the cheese and spinach is a gentler direction.
